THE Crass oF '94.—The alumni rec-
ord of the Bellefonte High school now
bears the names of Allen Frederic Blair,
Gertrude B. Dolan, David Paul Fort-
ney, John M. Keichline, Jr., Mary
Touise Kellerman, Maurice J. Kelley,
William H. Runkle, 8S. Elizabeth
Smith, Refus Tracy Strohm and Isabel
Taylor. These young ladies and gen-
tlemen having completed all the work
required in the curriculum of the school
were presented with their diplomas on
Wednesday night.
The regular commencement exercises
were held in Garman’s opera house in
the afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, and the
program, as published last week, was
faithfully carried out, To individual:
ize on the orations and essays delivered
by the young graduates would be im-
possible, for they were all so good.
The work of all branches of the Belle-
fonte schools show such marked ad.
vancement every time it is presented to
public conception, that we are often
puzzled to determine where it will end.
In point of composition, exhaustively
handled subjects and general graceful-
ness of delivery the productions of the
class were indeed praise-worthy. And
the crowded auditorium and the unflag-
ging attention attested it more than any
words of the press.
The graduates were seated on the
stage, which was artistically decorated
in the class colors, lavender and purple,
and seemed a veritable bower of flow-
ers. The motto “Mind Moves Matter”
hung in a significant scroll over the
heads of the students and all combined
to make a most pleasing effect. Meyers’
orchestra added the final stroke to com-
plete the joyful afternoon and from the
salutatory oration of Fred Blair to the
valedictory address of Rufus Strohm
everything was complete.
In the evening the opera house was
again packed with relatives and friends
of the graduates who assembled to hear
Col, J. L. Spangler’s address to the class
and witness the final severing of schol-
arly connection with the school system
which was effected when each member
was presented with a roll of parchment
which certified proficiency in all the
branches of learning taught. The pre-
sentation speech was made by D. F.
Fortney, president of the board, and
with it over the class of ’94 became
known only as alumni of the schools.
Several pleasant little exchanges were
indulged between the classes during the
evening, showing that alter contention
comes good fellowship.
Exhibition day is the most note-
wortby one in the year for the primary
branches of the schools. This is a new
departure in the modern idea of schooling
and the way the children take hold of it
predestines its success. The idea is to
exhibit all the work done in the primary
schools during the year in connection
with the results of the ideas of harmony
in colors and designs as evinced by the
children. This latter feature grows out
of the introduction of a kind kindergar-
ten work in the schools. The scholars
are given various colored paper to make
figures and blend colors, they draw de-
signs and fill them in with. colors and do
needle and carpentry work, all of which
affords a recreative diversion from rou-
tine of the school room and tends to de-
velop the talent of the scholar.
Last year the exhibition attracted
much attention and yesterday the South
ward school building was crowded with
parents and others interested in the
work. All seemed delighted with what
they saw. The exhibit is more com-
plete than last year, and shows better
results, in fact it is so good that the
S:ate instructor, during a visit here sev-
eral days ago, said she had not seen any
work in the State to compare with it.
In the rooms taught by Miss Rankin
and Miss Dorworth, where no guide
books are furnished, the results are traly
remarkable.
DeatH oF Mgrs. Roprrr Ray.—
After a lingering illness of many moaths

——The article that appeared on the
local page of the Democrat yesterday,
taken from the Huntingdon News is
just four years old. We are surprised
that the Democrat should be so far be-
hind the times, but several other county
papers have made the same error. The
Philipsburg Journal started it by clip-
ping the article from a Huntingdon News
of the year 1890, not knowing the
paper was four years old.
——The auditors of Benner township
got it into their heads lately that John
Reed, of Huntingdon county, who had
been a supervisor of the township owed
them some money on his old duplicate.
They sent him a letter to make settle-
ment, which he did recently, and found
that instead of owing Benner township
it was in debt to him to the amount of
$11.11. The fellows up there who
thought they were going to buy a stone
crusher with what Reed owed them will
have to use the sledges a while longer,
CounciL Transacrs JUNE Busi-
Ness. —The borough council met Mon-
day evening with all members but two
present. Very little business aside from
the ordinary routine was transacted.
All committees reported their work well
in hand and several petitions were
heard. Among them was one from the
residents in the vicinity of the car
works ; assessor John Sheffler repre-
senting them asked council to build
a boardwalk out South: Potter street for
their convenience. The matter was re-
ferred to the street committee. The
Lamb street bridge over Spring creek
was condemned as unsafa, and & motion
to appoint viewers on it was adopted.
Council granted Lyman Corman per-
mission to erect a booth in the Diamond
for the sale of confectionery and other
stuff, providing the property holders do
not object. Of course’ Mr. Corman’s
being blind warrants such a concession
in his behalf, but we do not think 1t
good policy for council to go too far in
granting such privileges, and it would
be wise if he were required to erect a
portable booth so that on days of public
demonstrations the stand could be
moved away from the Diamond and not
mar the beauty of the only public square
in town.
Be Carervr How You SenND
BiLLs.—The question as to what kind
of wording is allowable on a postal card
is ordinarily a much mooted one, but
as yet we have not heard of any in this
community getting into serious trouble
on account of having over stepped the
law with regard to the matter. It has
been the general impression hereabouts
that no kind of adun is permissible on
a postal card and that mailing the same
would be a punishable offence. An
answer of the first assistant post-master
general to a recent inquiry on the sub-
ject embodied the decision of Judge
Thayer, December, 1889, on the word-
ing of a postal card that was mailable
snd one that was not. The mailable one
read : ‘Please call and settle account,
which is long past due, and for which
our collector has called several times,
aad oblige.” The unmailable one reads :
“You owe me $1.80. We have called
several times for same. If not paid at
once, we shall place with our law agency
for collection.”
The last senteuce, it is stated. ruled
out this communication. Postal cards
are not mailable if they contain lan-
guage of “‘a threatening character,” and
it is a very serious threat to the average
man to tell him that you are going to
sue him. There iz no law however to
prevent you from putting an X on your
card to let your debtor understand that
you are really cross with him.
Now these aresome of the ways that
others have adopted to conform to a law
which is intended to protect the debtor
from the long nosed class that is always
peering into the business of others, but
none of them are as effective as the one
adopted by Bellefonte’s ex-tax collector,
S. D. Ray Esq. Under his regime
whenever a fellow was inclined to take
more than the limit in paying his taxes
Mr. Ray would send him a postal say-
ing. “If you have time vo-day, call at
my office as I have some business of
great importance to you.” Of course
the unsuspecting delinquent hurried
around, after the receipt of such a note,
thinking that some rich relative had
died and left him a fortune, and,imagine
his chagrin, when he was told that his
taxes must be paid at once.
Tae Kinp oF CHARITY THAT IS
FrurTFUL.—The recent closing of an-
other term of the sewing school, which
has been connected with the W. C. T.
U. work in this place for several years,
calls to our notice the good which this
kind of charity may produce.
During the seven months continuance
of the school eighty children, all vol-
untarily, made there way to the rooms
of the Union in the Exchange and there
they were taught the art of needle work.
Poor girls of all ages frequented the
school and many, led more by curiosity
than anything else at first, became in-
terested and though they may not have
learned much still they were taught to
put on a neat patch or mend a rent in
their own dress, accomplishments which
they might never have acquired had
it not been for the school.
Where the teachers were punctual
and interested in the work of instruction
the scholars were the same, but unfor-
tunately several promising classes were
allowed to dwindle for the want of some
one 10 give them the proper care.
The work of the school usually begins
with the making of a complete out-fit of
doll clothes, then an apron for the
scholar follows. During the term the
ladies gave out forty-six gingham aprons.
After this came the learning of the dif-
ferent stitches, seams, tucking, patching
and button hole making, all done on
muslin.—then the scholar was ready to
do any kind of sewing required.
This branch of the woman’s work is |
one especially fruitful in its results. For
through 1t many children, who do not
have an opportunity of learning at home,
are taught how to handle a needle, then
too the benefits of associating with in-
telligent, christian women a few hours a
week cannot help but be manifest in
the future of these children who attend
the W. C. T. U. sewing school.
Meyers Gor Five YEARS IN THE
PENITENTIARY. —Thomas Meyers, the
Philipsburg robber, was called up be-
fore Judges Furst, Riley and Faulkner,
sitting at argument court on Tuesday,
and was sentenced to five years solitary
confinement and hard labor in the
western penitentiary.
He had plead guilty to three indict-
ments at the April sitting of the quarter
sessions, but sentence was suspended,
and through the intercession of a long
petition and a concurrence of. counsels
he was discharged on good behavior
until September, Scarcely ten day®
later he was arrested again for breaking
into Asheroft’s beer house in Philipe-
burg and the sentence Tuesday was
given on two of the old indictments.
One for three years, one dollar fine and
costs ; another for two years, one dol-
lar fine and costs, and the third is still
held against him.
Meyers had every chance in the world
to make a man of himself and since he
didn’t improve the opportunity his
sentence 18 no more than he deserved.
Sheriff Condo took him to Pittsburg
Wednesday morning.

—=~While cutting wood in the
mountains David Krape, of Haines
township, recently cut a large tree that
lodged in the lower limbs of another
nearby as it was falling. He climbed
up the partly fallen tree to cut it loose,
when the whole thing went down and
he was pinned under the limbs. On
cutting himself out he foumd his leg
broken below the knee. His cries after
awhile attracted a woman to his relief
and she notified neighbors who carried
him home.
“PauL JoNES' BY AMATEURS.—The
opera Paul Jones, given last Friday
night by the Bellefonte opera company
was a complete success in ever particular.
The chorus was large and strong, the
number of pretty girls many, and the
audience one of the largest and possibly
the most enthusiastic that has ever been
in the opera house. The opera in itself
is lively and melodious and those who
went expecting to hear sweet music and
good singing were not disappointed, but
rather surprised at the amount of fairly
good acting that was done. In respect
of pure excellence the star of ths com-
pany was Lee B. Woodcock, who com-
pletely merged himself into “Paul
Jones ”’ He never slighted a note or a
syllable with his rich, fuil barytene and
his singing was admirable.
Miss Kate Lundy as the scolding wife
of Bouillabaisse was perfect and while
she has a sweet contralto voice it was as
an actress that she showed remarkabla
ability. Miss Marie G. Meek sang th®
leading soprano role and Miss Berenice
Moore was a preity, coy schemer as
Malaguena.
When Agnes Huntingdon played
Paul Jones, her Trocadero did not com-
pare with John Blanchard, who as the
silly old governor was a splendid success,
indeed the individual successes of the
leading characters were widely com-
mented upon, and it would be a grate-
ful task to take up one by one the ex-
cellence ' of the entire company. Mr,
Hard P. Harris’ acting and make up
as Biccquet caused nearly as
much amusement and applause ad
John Blanchard’s dancing or Bouilla-
basse’s jokes and his “shipping news”
song was exceptionally well done,
The old smuggler, James Harris,
kept the house in an uproar in the fun-
ny lines and was assisted with the
comedy parts by George R. Meeks as
Petit Pierre a fisher lad.
Altogether the evening's enteriain-
ment was most enjoyable and it cer-
tainly was encouraging to James R.
Hughes, G. Nevin Brandon and Wil-
bur F. Harris who worked so untiringly
to give it the vim and dash necessary in
comic opera and to them as well as the
company we as an audience extend our
congratulations and thanks for a very
pleasant evening.
In abeyance to a popular demand
the opera was repeated on Monday
night, when Miss Katharine Harris
took the dialogue part of Chopinette,
while Miss Ella Twitmire and other,
members of the companysang tha score.

VErY COMPLIMENTARY INDEED.--
Editor Jones, of the Tyrone daily Herald,
was a visitor in town last Friday and in
the evening witnessed the production of
the comic opera ‘Paul Jones” by the
Bellefonte opera company. Next day his
paper contained his opinion of the opera
as foliows :
“The Bellefonte opera company last
night produced that pleasing opera
“Paul Jones,” to a crowded house and
scored a tremendous success. It is safe
to say that 1t was decidedly the finest
amateur production ever given in this
section. Every one of the forty-two
members of the company played his
part to perfection.”
This is indeed a compliment, coming
from a Tyrone paper and written by a
man who has been to a certain degree
connected with Tyrone’s own amateur
organization that has produced several
operas and one who has witnessed many
similar productions in Central Pennsyl-
vania.
——We have been enjoying this

country butter. Mr. Musser is one of
Buffalo Run’s progressive farmers, who
believe in the best results possible. He
keeps only full blooded Jersey cattle,
and the butter he brings to town shows
much and caraful attention.
——Hugh M. Taylor was admitted to
the practice of law in the several courts

school, class of 86, and is a young man
who has a bright future before him.
